Nullification Confusion? Come Here For Help.
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - The process of Nullification is gaining steam, which should make you and me excited, right? But in this case the process of Nullification is being explained incorrectly to people in a poll.

Well that's not in the spirit of Nullification, we made a compact with the ….Continue
2nd Amendment Fight Isn't The End, It's The Wake-Up Call To Rethinking The Union

Unauthorized, Undeclared Wars Go Back Much Farther Than Obama Or Bush
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – You can’t have a conversation about Libya, in my humble estimation, without having a conversation about the abuse of executive power and about the dereliction of duty on the part of the members of the House of Representin’ and the Senate who no longer conduct any foreign policy and who no longer can even bring themselves to vote on whether or not we ought to be declaring war against people in lands in faraway places. The Gulf of….Continue
